Watched this movie tonight. I give it an A-.

I wouldn't consider this one of the truly great films I have seen in my life. I'm not dying to tell my friends and family "YOU GOTTA SEE THIS MOVIE."

But it was well done, and held my interest. To me, it didn't speak to the human condition so much. Not psychological enough perhaps. I didn't really truly get in the characters' skin.

I thought the movie was great as well. The ending felt like it didnt belong, but, overall, the movie entertained.

I liked Leo alot better in Blood Diamond than The Departed. Leo's got some skills, that is for sure.
